A Novel Deep Learning Stack for APT Detection
2019
We present a novel Deep Learning (DL) stack for detecting Advanced Persistent threat (APT) attacks. This model is based on a theoretical approach where an APT is observed as a multi-vector multi-stage attack with a continuous strategic campaign. To capture these attacks, the entire network flow and particularly raw data must be used as an input for the detection process. By combining different types of tailored DL-methods, it is possible to capture certain types of anomalies and behaviour. Our method essentially breaks down a bigger problem into smaller tasks, tries to solve these sequentially and finally returns a conclusive result. This concept paper outlines, for example, the problems an…
State of the Art Literature Review on Network Anomaly Detection with Deep Learning
2018
As network attacks are evolving along with extreme growth in the amount of data that is present in networks, there is a significant need for faster and more effective anomaly detection methods. Even though current systems perform well when identifying known attacks, previously unknown attacks are still difficult to identify under occurrence. To emphasize, attacks that might have more than one ongoing attack vectors in one network at the same time, or also known as APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) attack, may be hardly notable since it masquerades itself as legitimate traffic. Furthermore, with the help of hiding functionality, this type of attack can even hide in a network for years. Additi…
Sign Languages Recognition Based on Neural Network Architecture
2017
In the last years, many steps forward have been made in speech and natural languages recognition and were developed many virtual assistants such as Apple’s Siri, Google Now and Microsoft Cortana. Unfortunately, not everyone can use voice to communicate to other people and digital devices. Our system is a first step for extending the possibility of using virtual assistants to speech impaired people by providing an artificial sign languages recognition based on neural network architecture.
Deep learning approach for the segmentation of aneurysmal ascending aorta.
2020
Diagnosis of ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm (ATAA) is based on the measurement of the maximum aortic diameter, but size is not a good predictor of the risk of adverse events. There is growing interest in the development of novel image-derived risk strategies to improve patient risk management towards a highly individualized level. In this study, the feasibility and efficacy of deep learning for the automatic segmentation of ATAAs was investigated using UNet, ENet, and ERFNet techniques. Specifically, CT angiography done on 72 patients with ATAAs and different valve morphology (i.e., tricuspid aortic valve, TAV, and bicuspid aortic valve, BAV) were semi-automatically segmented with Mimic…
Development of handcrafted and deep based methods for face and facial expression recognition
2021
The research objectives of this thesis concern the development of new concepts for image segmentation and region classification for image analysis. This involves implementing new descriptors, whether color, texture, or shape, to characterize regions and propose new deep learning architectures for the various applications linked to facial analysis. We restrict our focus on face recognition and person-independent facial expressions classification tasks, which are more challenging, especially in unconstrained environments. Our thesis lead to the proposal of many contributions related to facial analysis based on handcrafted and deep architecture.We contributed to face recognition by an effectiv…
Artificial intelligence for image-guided prostate brachytherapy procedures
2020
Radiotherapy procedures aim at exposing cancer cells to ionizing radiation. Permanently implanting radioactive sources near to the cancer cells is a typical technique to cure early-stage prostate cancer. It involves image acquisition of the patient, delineating the target volumes and organs at risk on different medical images, treatment planning, image-guided radioactive seed delivery, and post-implant evaluation. Artificial intelligence-based medical image analysis can benefit radiotherapy procedures. It can help to facilitate and improve the efficiency of the procedures by automatically segmenting target organs and extrapolating clinically relevant information. However, manual delineation…
Computer-aided-diagnosis for ocular abnormalities from a single color fundus photography with deep learning
2023
Any damage to the retina can lead to severe consequences like blindness. This visual impairment is preventable by early detection of ocular abnormalities. Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) for ocular abnormalities is built by analyzing retinal imaging modalities, for instance, Color Fundus Photography (CFP). The main objectives of this thesis are to build two CAD models, one to detect the microaneurysms (MAs), the first visible symptom of diabetic retinopathy, and the other for multi-label detection of 28 ocular abnormalities consisting of frequent and rare abnormalities from a single CFP by using deep learning-based approaches. Two methods were proposed for MAs detection: ensemble-based and c…
Localisation visuelle basée sur la reconnaissance du lieu dans les environnements changeants
2017
In many applications, it is crucial that a robot or vehicle localizes itself within the world especially for autonomous navigation and driving. The goal of this thesis is to improve place recognition performance for visual localization in changing environment. The approach is as follows: in off-line phase, geo-referenced images of each location are acquired, features are extracted and saved. While in the on-line phase, the vehicle localizes itself by identifying a previously-visited location through image or sequence retrieving. However, visual localization is challenging due to drastic appearance and illumination changes caused by weather conditions or seasonal changing. This thesis addres…
Deep learning to detect built cultural heritage from satellite imagery. - Spatial distribution and size of vernacular houses in Sumba, Indonesia -
2021
Abstract In Sumba Island – Indonesia, the implantation of vernacular houses, inside and outside traditional villages, is considered to be an efficient proxy for the on-going complex cultural transformations resulting from globalization. This study presents an easily reproducible workflow allowing buildings to be automatically detected from satellite imagery, demonstrating how modern computer vision methods based on deep learning can help in this task, which would be far too time-consuming when undertaken by hand. Eight deep learning architectures based on convolutional neural networks were compared in terms of ability to identify and locate precisely traditional houses from satellite images…
Conception d'architectures compactes pour la détection spatiotemporelle d'actions en temps réel
2022
This thesis tackles the spatiotemporal action detection problem from an online, efficient, and real-time processing point of view. In the last decade, the explosive growth of video content has driven a broad range of application demands for automating human action understanding. Aside from accurate detection, vast sensing scenarios in the real-world also mandate incremental, instantaneous processing of scenes under restricted computational budgets. However, current research and related detection frameworks are incapable of simultaneously fulfilling the above criteria. The main challenge lies in their heavy architectural designs and detection pipelines to extract pertinent spatial and tempor…
